developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
run-time dependency (DEPENDS) on a tool is to append a ":run" modifier
to the tool name, e.g.,
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run
Tools without modifiers or with an explicit ":build" modifier will
cause build dependencies (BUILD_DEPENDS) on those tools to be added.
This makes the notation a bit more compact.
Ispell 3.3 offers improved support for international languages, improved
deformatting, and better support for compilation on Windows systems. All
known security holes have been closed. A number of small bugs are also
fixed.
Ispell 3.2 is primarily a bug-fix release, but a number of new
features are important to users:
- There is a new interactive mode. If ispell is invoked without
arguments, it will prompt for words and suggest corrections.
- The emacs interface (ispell.el and ispell.texinfo) is no
longer distributed with ispell. Use the code that comes with
emacs, or pick it up from:
ftp://kdstevens.com/pub/stevens/ispell.el.gz
or the matching ispell.el home page:
http://www.kdstevens.com/~stevens/ispell-page.html
- There is now an HTML mode. It is automatically selected for
files ending in ".html", ".htm", or ".shtml". It can also be
chosen manually with the -H switch.
- There is a new general-purpose deformatter switch, -F. This
switch, which was suggested by Ron Guilmette, allows an
external program to perform deformatting for ispell. The -F
switch opens the door to completely generalized spell checking
with ispell. Want to spell-check your C/C++ comments? A
simple deformatter filter will do the job. See the ispell
manual page for details.
- The annoying "TeX backslash bug" is now fixed correctly.
- TeX/LaTeX deformatting is now somewhat configurable. Check
out the -k switch and TEXSKIP1 in the manual page.
Also include the irix patches from PR pkg/26925 from Georg Schwarz.
ispell 3.1.2- contains an irritating bug when using latex that causes all
sorts of problems the backslash is used. [...]
The patch provided fixes these problems.
This problem was noted and patches to the Makefile were supplied by
Marko Schuetz (MarkoSchuetz at web dot de) in PR pkg/17418 - thanks!
This closes PR# pkg/17418.
Summary of changes:
- removal of USE_GTEXINFO
- addition of mk/texinfo.mk
- inclusion of this file in package Makefiles requiring it
- `install-info' substituted by `${INSTALL_INFO}' in PLISTs
- tuning of mk/bsd.pkg.mk:
removal of USE_GTEXINFO
INSTALL_INFO added to PLIST_SUBST
`${INSTALL_INFO}' replace `install-info' in target rules
print-PLIST target now generate `${INSTALL_INFO}' instead of `install-info'
- a couple of new patch files added for a handful of packages
- setting of the TEXINFO_OVERRIDE "switch" in packages Makefiles requiring it
- devel/cssc marked requiring texinfo 4.0
- a couple of packages Makefiles were tuned with respect of INFO_FILES and
makeinfo command usage

further information.
pkgsrc. Instead, a new variable PKGREVISION is invented that can get
bumped independent of DISTNAME and PKGNAME.
Example #1:
DISTNAME= foo-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= foo-X.YnbZ
Example #2:
DISTNAME= barthing-X.Y
PKGNAME= bar-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= bar=X.YnbZ (!)
On subsequent changes, only PKGREVISION needs to be bumped, no more risk
of getting DISTNAME changed accidentally.
spelling checker. The new format allows multiple language
dictionaries to be installed at the same time, and uses pkgsrc
dependencies, rather then overloading the base package.
This is the base package (which also installs the default American
English directories).
